Additional Notes

  • The BAIC Senova BJ40 hydraulic brake/clutch system holds a capacity of 0.6 liter across all five power variants — 150 kW, 160 kW, 165 kW, 170 kW, and 184 kW — introduced from 2023.
  • A 0.6 liter figure for a combined hydraulic brake and clutch system reflects a shared fluid reservoir arrangement, where a single fluid volume serves both the braking circuit and the clutch actuation circuit.
  • The change interval is set at 40,000 km or 24 months under normal use conditions, meaning whichever threshold is reached first triggers a fluid replacement.
  • A 24-month time-based interval alongside the distance threshold is consistent with brake fluid's tendency to absorb moisture over time, which lowers its boiling point regardless of mileage accumulated.
  • The uniform 0.6 liter capacity and identical 40,000 km/24-month interval across the 150 kW, 160 kW, 165 kW, 170 kW, and 184 kW variants indicate no differentiation in brake/clutch system sizing between the power outputs in the 2023 lineup.
